  As we all should know (if you don't, you'll be pleasantly or not-so-pleasantly surprised sooner or later today, more than likely), IT'S APRIL FOOL'S DAY.. at least right now in the Eastern Time Zone. And that entails lot of jokes flying around today.

Forgive me if it looks cluttered.

• Dungeon Crawl: Stone Soup had/has a version up with the in-game text in what appears to be Pirate Talk.
• George Takei got us good! Also, you are now reading this entire post in Takei's voice.
  
• Mars Effect, Notch's new upcoming game!
  
• Google REALLY Advanced Search! When font and looping MIDI music are viable search variables.
  
• Wikipedia is.. well.. being truthful, but about the weirdest stuff.
  
• Nyan.cat goes trippy!
  
• Google's AUTONOMOUS NASCAR racecar! Drivers? We don't need no stinkin' drivers.
  
• ThePirateBay has apparently purchased Greek airspace. :P
• Blizzard and their recent educational games kick.. (~kaijyuu)
  
• Paradox Interactive (creators of Magika, if I recall correctly) have revolutionized gaming journalism by creating Meta-MetaCritic, reviewing the reviewers!
  
• imgur's new mascot! The imguraffe! (~Aqizzar)
  
• Google, INEGI, and Square Enix and their 8-bit Google Maps. There should be an option on the real Google Maps, too, just "start you quest". It's pretty much Google Maps, just filters added. Even in StreetView, it looks all low-res.   (~rtg593)
  
• KnowYourMeme hosting an Internet Meme Blowout Sale! (~alway)
  
• The YouTube Collection! Don't have internet? NO WORRIES! YouTube can be shipped to your doorstep! (~Sergius!)
  
• AdBlock Plus now shows you cats instead of ads.
• adult swim on Cartoon Network is showing Toonami instead of the usual [as].. which I'm LOVING! (~MetalSlimeHunt)
• reddit has added a new timeline. If you don't reddit, you might not completely get everything, though. (~Rebecca Black)
  
• TVTropes (forgive me) is showing their site in various random "languages". From pirate to Al Bhed, a language in Final Fantasy. (~NotAQuisling)
  
• For the "bronies" of the forums: Equestria Daily has reverted to an older.. despicable-er generation styling of pony. (~kaijyuu)
  
• World of Tanks and their server-piercing Ratte!
  
• SinglePlayerCommands, a mod thought to be essential for Minecraft, has a new command, "/roll" Shouldn't be too hard to figure out what it does.
• Dungeons of Dredmor II 3D!
  
• Tor books have revealed the covers of the manga based on John Scalzi's fantasy series.
  
• Apple goes nuclear option with a surprising patent!
  
• Wolfire and the change of direction for Overgrowth.
  

I'll add more to the list as I sees 'em.

Toonami is on tonight instead of Adult Swim. And its reviewed both Minecraft and Mass Effect 3 during commercial time.

Reddit is having a timeline thing, it's incredibly funny, but you might not get some things if you don't Reddit frequently.
Also, adblock is replacing ads with cats.

GUNDAM WING IS ON!
I love you for that, Metal!

And to think there was a point earlier tonight in which I considered going to sleep early.

I think I'm going to go back in time and punch my past self for almost making me miss out on this.

But for the moment I think I'll stay up until I can stay up no more.

Damn. I haz no TV.

Are you keeping track of the April fools jokes of various forums as well?

I might eventually seperate them from the reeeaaally big names like Blizzard and stuff. But for now, it'd be nice to put some names between the Google ones.

Ok, so:

Don't freak out on me, but....

Supposedly-April Fools Toonami referenced earlier on that they'd be showing Bleach.....next week. And now I'm hearing rumors flying that Steve Blum (TOM's VA) is saying this is a for-real change. I haven't been able to confirm that, but if the sudden explosion of activity across the internet over this is any indication...

Once again, unconfirmed, so don't get too excited.

EDIT: Shot down.

[NotAQuisling]

TvTropes seems to do their home page in random languages related to different tropes and works. Right now it's related to Lord of the Rings before it was Buffy speak.

I HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHLY doubt this. [as] has more important things... like "Loiter Squad" and "Doctor Steve Bruhl". Stuff that's apparently supposed to be funny. I could roll my eyes 1080 degrees when saying that. That's how sarcastic I am.

I WILL NOT LINK TO TVTROPES, DARNIT! D:

Oh, don't get me wrong, I also HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHLY doubt it.

But man, can you imagine?

I don't even know how those shows get ratings, really. The ultra-early morning stuff is never interesting.

[Luke_Prowler]

TV tropes is doing Pirate right now

[kaijyuu]

Equestria Daily has switch over from FiM to the earlier generations. Especially gen 3.5; a horrid, putrid abomination.

[RabblerouserGT]

Just saiyan.
